What can I expect during a women’s health care appointment?
What happens at your women’s health care appointment depends on your health needs and concerns.
If you come in for a well-woman exam, your provider asks you about your current health, performs a pelvic exam and clinical breast exam and does a Pap smear to check for abnormal cells that could suggest cervical cancer.
Contraceptive resources include counseling about the best form for you. The practice also provides prescriptions and devices, such as intrauterine devices (IUDs).
Women who have unusual symptoms, like vaginal discharge, pelvic pain, or growths on their genitals, may be referred to testing for sexually transmitted diseases.
The goal of all women’s care appointments is to help you optimize your overall health and well-being. Call Colorado Alliance for Health Equity and Practice or use the online tool to schedule an appointment today.
